There are many options for full or half marathons in the fall: The Nationwide Children’s Hospital Columbus Marathon, the Indianapolis Monumental Marathon, and the local races: The Little Miami Half Marathon, the Queen Bee Half Marathon, and the Honor Run Half Marathon.

From runners to walkers, coaches to participants, and store staff, we all care for one another and thrive on the success of each and every one of our group members. People who train with us make friends for life!
